Advocacy

With nearly 800,000 Dreamers across the country, 97 percent of them work and/or attend school. While we share moral concerns for Dreamers as American residents, their contributions to our workforce and overall economy have a significant impact.

The current Administration proposes to invest larger sums of dollars into infrastructure. However, we’ve seen that not enough American workers were trained and retooled for such infrastructure investment opportunities.
